Xinzhu and Xinmei's faces tightened, and they nodded to Xiqiu. The two swiftly slipped out of the courtyard.
Xiqiu stood at the doorway, the courtyard was silent, not even a gatekeeper in sight, which was very unusual... Madam Wang couldn't have done nothing, she even suspected that this was a trap set by Madam Wang.
She walked to the side door that Tong Xiyan mentioned, and sure enough, she heard someone speaking inside. Upon closer listening, it was indeed Tong Xiyan's voice: "Young Master Jiang, are you really going to Fujian?"
"I'm considering it. Recently, there's been talk in the court that the Marquis is seriously injured, and the Emperor plans to send a governor to Fujian... so I'm thinking of going ahead and taking a look... the Marquis has been very kind to me..." A deep, unfamiliar male voice spoke in a very authentic official tone...
It must be Jiang Shilin.
